About ASC
Training Center
Nearly a century of California snow sport — the programs, people and community of Auburn Ski Club on Donner Summit.
One Community.
Two Organizations.
ASC Training Center and ASC Legacy Foundation work toward one shared purpose — but they are two separate nonprofits, each with its own Board of Directors, finances and role.

The Philanthropic Engine
Last year, the Legacy Foundation reinvested directly into the ASC mission:
Legacy isn't a separate side organization — it's the philanthropic engine supporting the ASC mission, while remaining separately governed. Every scholarship, every coach retained, and every facility improved traces back to the Foundation's giving.
A California Skiing Legacy
Nearly a century ago, a group of passionate visionaries came together with a simple idea — to create opportunities for people to experience the joy of winter sports.
From pioneering skiing in California to shaping the future of outdoor recreation on Donner Summit, Auburn Ski Club has always believed that access, community and opportunity matter.
Every trail improved, every scholarship awarded, and every young athlete who discovers a lifelong love of the mountains carries that spirit forward.
